Reyjr sings "When God Made You" by Newsong

After over 2 hours uploading, I'm glad to finally be able to share with you the video below of me and my colleague Michelle Agas singing "When God Made You", a song by Newsong featuring Natalie Grant. We performed it during the wedding of our former choir's pianist, Joy to her now husband, Mark at the Greenhills Christian Fellowship in Ortigas...

Lyrics: "When God Made You" by Newsong feat. Natalie Grant

Its always been a mystery to me,
How two hearts can come together,
And love can last forever.
But now that I have found you I believe,
That a miracle has come when God sends the perfect one.
So gone are all my questions about why,
And I've never been so sure of anything in my life

Chorus:
Oh I wonder what God was thinking,when he created you.
I wonder if He knew everything I would need,
Because he made all my dreams come true.
When God made you, He must have been thinking about me.

Ooo ooo,I promise that wherever you may go, wherever life may lead you,
With all my heart I'll be there too.
And from this moment on I want you to know,
I'll let nothing come between us, and I will love the ones you love.

Duet:
So gone are all my questions about why (Man echoes):about why
And I've never been so sure of anything in my life

Chorus:
Oh I wonder what God was thinking when he created you,
I wonder if He knew everythin I would need,
Because He made all my dreams come true.
When God made you He must've been thinking about me.

Bridge:
He made the sun He made the moon,
To harmonize a perfect tune,
One can't do without the other they just have to be together.
And that is how I know its true,
Your for me and i'm for you and my world
Just cant be right without you in my life

Chorus:
Oh I wonder what God was thinking when he created you,
I wonder if He knew everythin I would need,
Because He made all my dreams come true.
When God made you He must've been thinking about me.

He must have heard every prayer I've been praying (girl echo) I've been praying
He must've knew everything I would need
When God made you,
Dreams come true
When God made you,
He must've been thinking about me.

The Back Story

The bride requested us to sing this song via a Facebook message. I had to search for a YouTube video of a good enough version I can use as a guide. I also had to look for the lyrics myself and since there was no time to memorize it, I just brought a copy (notice me reading off a piece of paper in my hand? Haha, not very subtle. :p )

Also, since we are working in different places in the country, there was no way for us to rehearse together. About half an hour before the wedding, we ran through the song using a YouTube minus one Michelle found, but it turned out that the copy she found was of a different key altogether. :p

We got the chance to run the song once with the Pianist literally minutes before the wedding began. Haha! I'm only glad we finished the song all at the same time. :D
Hope you guys like it.
